>>Bob Woodward if you want to really understand how Clinton became the biggest supporter of a balanced budget since Dwight Eisenhower. LOL. Forget the "semi", you are an illiterate, and a fool. btw, I admit to one mistake when I stated: "IN fact, economic growth under Clinton slowed markedly from the Reagan years, from an average of 4.3% to 3.7%." It should have been 4.5% under Reagan and 3.7% under the Clinton regime.
